With the increasing amount of games being played per week in the various leagues (Proleague on 5 days a week anyone?) I find it absolutely impossible to keep up with watching.
Even in the past I only downloaded a few selected games, but with the new massive influx of VODs it's getting harder and harder.
Since I don't want to miss good games (and I'm sure I am not the only one) it would be nice if you could post in this thread and recommend games. I am certain there is quite a number of people out there who would really appreciate that.
For example if a very good game just happened on the live stream post here so people like me will know what to look out for when downloading.
Thanks  Last edit: 2007-04-16 16:47:13 |

That's a start 
Edit: also, I am personally very interested in 2v2 games, so if anyone sees a good 2v2 game in Proleague please mention it here. ThanksLast edit: 2007-04-16 16:51:34 |

| i posted this on the small VOD thread, but i personally liked the ace match ZvZ between PanTech and eSTRO. it was fast paced game that went back and forth...and although ZvZ is my least favorite of matchups, the game itself was entertaining. |

I liked the aforementioned KTF 2v2.
I also enjoyed the KTF/OGN ace match - funny and exciting. A bit nervewracking while watching, too.
Reach/Yooi game 2 was good play from mantoss - I mean, a win on arkanoid for PvT? Admittedly, Yooi made some bad decisions, but Reach's mudang storms and carrier control were very good. |

Surprisingly, Neo Arkanoid actually has a 61% winrate PvT (for P!). Maybe just recently the trend has reversed?

Alright, so I was thinking of making a thread on the exact same topic with probably the exact same original post. Carnac couldn't have said it better. I have an unhealthy love affair with VODs and watch them all, so the following is a list of recommendations.
I divided the VODs in four levels:
Skip : If you're not a VOD fanatic, it suffices just to know the outcome of these games. There isn't really anything outstanding in them (and if there is, it's too little), just your average run-of-the mill game play. In fact, if I could, I would have advised my past self not to bother watching these (at regular speed, anyway) in the first place. They're not necessarily bad games, just mundane.
Read: A few interesting things happened in these games, but not quite enough to distinguish them from the mediocre. These games may have a lot of underlying tension but the play might be a little too unimpressive to need to be seen first-hand. They do have a few (usually fleeting) moments of real excitement, however, and I recommend that you at least take a look at the written reports. If there are no staff reports on the particular match, the experience is always frozen in time for you in the live reports thread.
Watch: This is everything you hope for when starting a VOD. Unconventional strategies, pimp plays, bold moves and unexpected outcomes, or simply a solid and exciting game between two professionals playing all out. Whether it's a particularly well played case of a textbook match or a crazy cheese that could end up anywhere, a game at this level generally features near-flawless overall gameplay and impressive feats of control. Anything you think of when you think "good game." Watch them, you won't be sorry.
Don't miss: The best of the best. These are the games that will come up in discussions months from now. They define pro-gamers in terms of ability, ranking, style and popularity. They're truly outstanding performances that you, as a Starcraft fan, cannot afford to miss. They will shock, awe, and keep you on the edge of your seat.
So here are the ODT Ro48 games in list form:
Skip:

So there's my opinion about the games so far. I'd guess I'm +/- .5 a level off from the majority vod watchers here. What do you think of the games? Remember spoiler tags! Last edit: 2007-04-19 02:41:18 |

Edit: Sorry, I have to go now. I will update it when I'm back. All of the games there are on the TeamLiquid tracker. If you can't use torrents, I'll work on finding a solution soon. TL is a very resourceful community!Last edit: 2007-04-17 12:37:15 |
